I wonder, Mike, if this is really reliable in a cold winter. I have done that tomato cage thing in my
first winter as augmentation to the base mulching, to save as much as possible . See the funny
man here: My Banana Experience (or lack of it) It did not work for me, though I used leaves
instead of your straw, which may be more effective and did not protect it against moisture. Still,
you appear to be walking close to the precipice. Having said that, I do not think your corm is in
any danger
